Some Institutional Business Basics 10 A&I Conference November 2007

Basic Building Blocks We issue institutional liabilities: Client e.g., a retirement plan deposits money with us We guarantee to repay the funds within a certain period e.g., 5 years We also guarantee a rate of interest on G uaranteed I nvestment C ontract their money And we guarantee that their plan participants can get their money out at any time, including their original principal plus any accumulated interest This is the benefit-responsive feature Available in tax-qualified plans Participant payment is at book value e.g., if you put $1 in, you get $1 back, plus all accrued earnings The traditional GIC is sold into qualified plans, such as 401(k) plans (defined contribution, or DC plans). Funding agreements are very similar to GICs but typically do not offer benefit-responsiveness or tax deferral Funding agreements are sold into non-qualified markets or funds, such as money market funds, or to municipalities wanting to reinvest their bond issue proceeds, or converted into medium term note programs for purchase by institutional investors GICs and funding agreements are insurance contracts that rank pari passu with other policyholders 11 A&I Conference November 2007

GICs and their Variants are our spread Business We earn a spread on the customer s funds we invest these funds, and keep the difference between what we pay the customer and what we earn on the investment We assume all the investment risk, and by structuring the product appropriately and investing well behind it, we can make an attractive return We price for, and have achieved, unlevered returns in excess of 12% 12 A&I Conference November 2007

Traditional vs. Synthetic GICs Traditional GICs Synthetic GICs ( Wraps ) We own assets and hold in our Customer owns assets and hires an general account asset manager We assume investment risks and Customer assumes all investment rewards risks and rewards More risk, higher margin, more Low risk, low margin, low capital capital usage usage Deposit 401(k) Plan Stable Value Fund Principal + interest Principal + interest Individual Participant AEGON s General Account Plan Sponsor Plan-owned assets Investment Manager Book-value benefit payments (principal + stable credited interest) Insurer Book Value Wrapper Terms Defined: Wrap: A contract that guarantees principal and accumulated interest, and participant-initiated withdrawals and transfers at book value. In synthetic GICs, the selection of the wrap provider is generally made separately from the selection of the investment management services for the underlying assets. 13 A&I Conference November 2007

Typical 401(k) Plan Investment options available to 401(k) participants Benefits of stable value (for plan participants) Stable Value Fund Traditional GICs Synthetic GICs Separate Account GICs Equity Mutual Funds Bond Funds Company Stock Better yield than cash longer term; safe haven Protection of earnings and principal Reduced volatility of returns Increased growth / decreased risk Very attractive to risk-averse participants especially investors who are near to retirement (or whose children are near college) who want a guarantee 14 A&I Conference November 2007

Funding Agreement-Backed Notes A funding agreement (FA) is an insurance contract whereby an insurance company has the obligation to pay set amounts of principle and interest on specific dates The FA-backed note structure essentially converts an illiquid funding agreement into liquid securities Resulting security is a medium-term note that can be readily bought and sold through the capital markets FAs are pari passu with policyholder claims in all states where insurers have established note programs Terms Defined: Pari Passu: Contract is given the same payback priority as individual policyholders, ahead of debt holders, in the event of an insolvency. 15 A&I Conference November 2007

FA-backed Notes: Product Profile Nice complement to traditional insurance and savings businesses 2006 weighted average life 4+ years or total weighted average life 4.5 years Cash-flow certainty Generally option-free (no put) Diversification of funding sources Swapped to US $ floating Use existing investment and asset/liability management (ALM) skills to generate positive spreads on the incremental funding Benefits to investors: Attractive yields Access to high-quality, liquid, listed securities Diversification through exposure to U.S. life insurance industry Access to private customized paper 16 A&I Conference November 2007

Direct Funding Agreements Basic product features: Insurance contract sold by life companies; pari passu with policyholders Guarantees principal plus floating rate of return, typically tied to LIBOR or Fed funds Perpetual vs. term structures Eligible illiquid investment for 2a-7 money market funds Notice period of 12 months or longer We sell directly to funds AEGON s structure: On day one, funding agreement has a 13-month maturity Every month the client extends the maturity back out to 13 months (client must take an action to extend the maturity) Controlled distribution Sell direct to clients Build strong institutional relationships Current average life is 10+ years In-force deposits back to 1987 Terms Defined: Money market fund: A mutual fund that invests in commercial paper, banker s acceptances, repurchase agreements, government securities, CDs and other highly liquid and safe securities. Rule 2a-7: Funds must maintain a constant Net Asset Value (NAV) of $1; only invest in instruments with maturities of less than 13 months; have a weighted average maturity of less than 90 days; limit their invested assets in a single issuer to no more than 5%; not invest more than 5% of their total assets in lower rated assets (A2/P2) Notice period: gives the contract holder the option of selling the contract back to the issuer and getting its money out after giving the required notice. 17 A&I Conference November 2007
